If your page consist solely on a dynamically generated graph, it's OK for it to not show anything with JS disabled.

If you have other content though, it's not OK to not show anything; only the graph should be missing without javascript, the rest of the page should still render.

You can put data for the graph into a table, then use a script to render that table as a graph. If people cared enough, graph libraries could expect heir data in table format.

I use the graph and a table under technique.

Saddly most graph libraries seem to love json data formats, which aren't logically table oriented... though if you used the json data and javascript to load the table and create the graph...
